The cool thing Danny is that you're willing to work through the things that don't work... And you're not afraid to show us when things don't work right the 1st time. But instead of just giving up with a halfway do you a halfway DIY idea you see it through into something you actually want. That's awesome
I LOVE those bookends and the wood sculpture. The lady is gorgeous and I honestly love her better being a bit rustic. I can see her saying, " I may be a rough around the edges but my pearls say I'm a lady."
I like the napkin ring abstract sculpture the best. For the bookends, what I would have done differently is to use walnut instead of oak, put walnut edge banding on the sides/edges of the wood so it looked more finished, put walnut dowel plugs in the holes of the stone balls to match the walnut wood, and then glued the balls closer to (touching) the angle of the bookends so that it looked like the balls were kind of holding up the wood.
I also thought the balls should be touching the vertical wood pieces. I thought that is how the inspo picture had theirs. The large gap between balls & wood just looked odd to me.
Love all of these DIYs but the "boob vase" is my favorite!!! The lamps were my second favs. You always have the most creative ideas...I always look forward to your videos no matter what the topic. Your personality is priceless and I have to say that every time I watch one of your videos I come away smiling and feeling better about life even though I am the least creative person on the planet. Have a great week....can't wait to see what you have planned for next week. !!!
I love the breast friend and bookends. Sculpture turned out great too. Lamps had a rough journey to start, but I love that "brass" shade result. They reminded me of something a job candidate said in an interview with me earlier this week: "fail forward!" I'm taking this as my new mantra 😌 Happy Easter to all those who are celebrating tomorrow!
I love how you show the process and include all the failures along the way. Our ideas don't always turn out the way we first expected but we always end up with something even better as a result. Thank you for sharing these moments xo
Has anyone else noticed the prices creeping up at the thrift store? Great job as usual Danie!!! 🖤 Edit: The purple and gold looks so much more regal than purple and silver IMO.
Yes! It's actually been a big topic in the media. With this rise of thrift flipping... all the stores are starting to jack up the prices because they can, which is sad because that defeats the point of secondhand shopping!! I've seen a lot of people pushing back on this and for good reason!
@@DIYDanie it's not exactly the people flipping/remaking stuff that is driving the prices up. Its the resellers. I see them in all the flea markets and thrift stores where I live.
Surprisingly, the napkin holders were my favorite. It's so simple, bit looks so artsy. 🧑🎨 I feel like this piece really speaks to the fact that you don't have to be rich in order to have unique art in your home. ☺️
When you see your grandmas old napkin holders in a TH-cam video! I’m not sure how popular those kinds were but I vividly remember using those wooden ones around Easter. They annoyed me because the whole setting weren’t the same shape, but the sound of you tossing them around brought back all those memories of dumping them out and placing the napkins in just a certain way. I’m from Calgary Alberta. So very cool to see them again after all these years even if they aren’t the same set.
Always love your DIY’s 💚 I particularly love the last one and have an idea for changing it up. What if you had the long ‘rod’ and drilled holes through your napkin holes? Like in different places, of course - that way your brass rod would go through the napkin holders AND you could fidget with it, and change the look whenever you felt like it. Do you know what I mean? I'm so proud for even having an idea here 🤣😂🤣
Wow...what a day. We all have those days where everything goes to crap. Both lamps turned out great, although I loved the original colors of the triangle lamp. Loved the book ends. You are so clever and creative.
All these turned out amazing but I think your lady vase wins, she's just so fabulous! Close second is the wood sculpture, so easy but so darn GOOD!! Need to keep an eye out for smaller items to stack!! Over the weekend we visited the in-laws and I got to go through some of their old boxes with stuff they don't use anymore and I found myself two matching smaller table lamps with some art-deco (ish) "brass" bases, so cute and cool but their shades definitely needs an upcycle which I'm excited to tackle!
Honestly I couldn’t pick a favorite. I was like “that one” “no, that one”. They are all wonderful. You are such a great inspiration. Ok, out into the crafting/thrifting world I go!
My favorite was flower lady. Most likely to dupe: book ends using something around the house, also tower of matching items, yours looked midcentury mod always a plus for me!
Bookends😎. I can barely use a screwdriver. My favorite was the girl vase, I would love it with tulips or daisies. I am a fan of your energy, youth, creativity, and perky spirit.
Your Saturday uploads are a highlight of my week. You have a special way of pulling me out of the stresses and messes I deal with everyday! So thanks a ton for your wonderful content and fabulous personality! ♥️
1/ I love that you don't shy away from including your 'failures' in your videos, it helps avoid troubles if/when anyone'd try their hand at some of these DIYs (also the finished lamps looked really good) 2/ For some reason the vase makes me think of topless Tammy 🤣 3/ My fave DIY was definitely the bookends and I'm really considering something similar as soon as possible 👀
My favourite was the last wood sculpture. I would buy that in a minute! All great decor flips. Tip...a shade should always cover all of the socket etc. when looked at from a seated position.
As sweet young lady I know just had a double mastectomy yesterday,, I am going to see if I can re-create this stunning vase you made. Thank you Miss Dani
Love the purple lamp, looking forward though, to a different shade 😀. The lady is beyond awesome! Such fun and quirky projects. Makes me want to go thrifting.
Look so forward to Saturday morning to see what you have in store for us. Love that you think outside the box. Thank you for your wonderful and beautiful inspiration.
Amazing flips as usual ! I loved the idea of the gold lampshade on the purple lamp. I think adding a purple rim to the lampshade will just lift it a bit and make it ideal size. I am crazy or wot to have an idea by just watching your video. And that's what I love about you. You just keep igniting our creativity by being you !!
Honestly, I love them all. I think the only thing I would have changed would be the balls on the bookends right up against the wood. Minor change. You are so creative.
Okay where do I start..lamps were up-cycle success...woman's bust... crazy but really unique. You have one of a kind pieces. You have a great eye for seeing something and picturing it as something else. The bookends did turn out funky cool. The art piece I was really drawn to and I liked the way you styled it with the bookends. Thumbs up Chiquita.
Really hard to choose a favourite. So I'm going to have to say, , book ends, napkin holder decor, purple and gold lamp, female form, rustic lamp. They all have their own charm.
Your imagination is truly astounding!! The books between the book ends just pop, and look fantastic. I love the wood sculpture, but my fave is the bust vase. Have a good one. TFS😊
For a Kids Room you could add lighting to base of the pottery lamp and it could be used as a night light and a regular lamp. My favorite was the bust vase. I love to sculpt and that looks like a sculpted piece.
I love this video 😃 practical, pretty to watch the process and look at, showing us what can go wrong but not spending a ton of time focusing on it, super creative, etc etc
I honestly love every one. I even thought the "breat friend" looked pretty cool in just decoupage and newspaper. Your creativity and skills are impressive!
absolutely amazing! I love the purple glass. Faszinating how you keep coming up with all these ideas, when I'm in the thrift shop I get overwhelmed so easily
It’s the take on the items, that elevates them to “heigh end”! I liked the bookends, simple but interesting! One thing only us olders would think of for paper mache is to use flour paste, I have items from fifty years ago that are still strong! One part flour 1 cup +1 cup water mix till smooth, add a little salt if storing to prevent mold! Just saying as Mod Podge is expensive! Realize it was quicker to use for video purposes! Blessed and safe days!
Wow! Such great thrift flips! I would have any of those in my home. I liked the lamps, I think it’s the size of the bowl that doesn’t seem right to me. The bookends are beautiful! They turned out so good. I know if I saw them in a store, they would be mine! The breast vase is awesome! It looks like something you could buy at a store. The napkin ring holders are brilliant! That sculpture is so high end! Danie, I love your creative, imaginative mind! You look at something and can see the potential for what it could be. That’s a gift. Spending Saturday mornings with you is the best part of the morning!
I liked the books end followed by the sculpture. They look good on the shelf together. I think the purple lamp is great, just need a deeper bowl or move it down a bit to hide the harp. :)
Great collection of DIY'S, fav forme was the wooden napkins turned sculpture followed by the busty vase, but look the velvet lampshade with its textured body.xxx
I think you are honestly my favourite channel…drop everything once I see your notifications, that and That Chapter, mikes channel ✨✨ true crime and DIY ♥️
The cool thing Danny is that you're willing to work through the things that don't work... And you're not afraid to show us when things don't work right the 1st time.

😙fav. The napkin ring art. Simply out there
Loved the rest as well
The bust flower vase is my fave
It’s SaturDanie DIY. The most fun you can have in your Jammie’s. The bowl shade has R2D2 vibes. You find some amazing things.
Beep Boop!
@@DIYDanie boop to kenobi from my dogs
I LOVE those bookends and the wood sculpture. The lady is gorgeous and I honestly love her better being a bit rustic. I can see her saying, " I may be a rough around the edges but my pearls say I'm a lady."
Oh for sure the vase!! Love it!!
The lady vase is my fav

I like all, as always 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
I 100 % agree ❤
I love how you are always positive and stay so true to yourself. You have inspired an old lady, thank you.

My favourite? The fun you had while making them. Thanks for sharing it with us! 😊
I picture the brass rod going thru the stone balls and the balls being tilted and glued to the wood. Loved all of them.
Napkin ring sculpture was my favourite - I liked the 70’s vibe. They were all cool,though!👏👏👏
My favorite is the napkin rings!
Liked the glass vase as is!
Didn't want to cover it!
But bust was terrific too!
Has anyone else noticed the prices creeping up at the thrift store? Great job as usual Danie!!! 🖤

Bookends
What’s your aesthetic?… DIY Danie. Loooove all of them. 🥰😍❤️😘💕
Color me friggin Impressed!! I love all of these!! Your creativity just blows my mind!! To go from a simple bottle to a woman's bust?!!mind blown💥
That was fun! My “make something new out of stuff in my house” Creative Beast has been awakened! It’s going to be a fun Saturday over here!🌸
Ahhh! Fabulous Saturday activity! Have fun! ✨✨🙌
I love all of these! I can totally see the purple glass lamp with one of those hammered brass bowls as a shade.
I really like that you show when DIY is a struggle sometimes.
When you see your grandmas old napkin holders in a TH-cam video!
I’m not sure how popular those kinds were but I vividly remember using those wooden ones around Easter.
They annoyed me because the whole setting weren’t the same shape, but the sound of you tossing them around brought back all those memories of dumping them out and placing the napkins in just a certain way.
I’m from Calgary Alberta. So very cool to see them again after all these years even if they aren’t the same set.
FUUUNNN!
Try tiny holes in gold lamp shade... like stars and/or constellations when on!!!
I really enjoy your videos. I wish my brain worked creatively like yours. You are very talented.
I loved the lady bust,now you could incorporate a middle section to add to the bottom of the ‘leg’ statue!!
Always love your DIY’s 💚 I particularly love the last one and have an idea for changing it up. What if you had the long ‘rod’ and drilled holes through your napkin holes? Like in different places, of course - that way your brass rod would go through the napkin holders AND you could fidget with it, and change the look whenever you felt like it. Do you know what I mean?

Love it! Great idea!
Definitely, purple doesn't go with silver. Gold all the way baby!💜💛
That bust vase is probably the best DIY I've seen in a year! Love love love! Well done and amazing upcycle!
The bust friend decopage was wonderful. Another idea for the ball bookends would be to make them float. You could do that with copper tubing.
🐼 Big Bear Hugs from a 68 yr old grandma in Kirby, Texas, USA 🐼 ❤ 🎀 ❤
Wow. A plethora of projects. I loved the napkin ring sculpture ♥️
Wow...what a day. We all have those days where everything goes to crap.
Both lamps turned out great, although I loved the original colors of the triangle lamp.
Loved the book ends.
You are so clever and creative.

Absolutely love the little Madame flower vase.
Love! The napkin ring sculpture is my favorite. Classy postmodern sculpture!
Honestly I couldn’t pick a favorite. I was like “that one” “no, that one”. They are all wonderful. You are such a great inspiration. Ok, out into the crafting/thrifting world I go!
My favorite was flower lady. Most likely to dupe: book ends using something around the house, also tower of matching items, yours looked midcentury mod always a plus for me!
loved the bookends and the napkin holder art piece!!!!!!
Love the bookends - you could add some dried sprigs of flowers in the holes.
Bookends😎. I can barely use a screwdriver. My favorite was the girl vase, I would love it with tulips or daisies. I am a fan of your energy, youth, creativity, and perky spirit.
The bookends were awesome 👌
The bangs rock ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ so beautiful 😻
Wood napkin ring sculpture was my favorite!
Loved the bust vase the best...then the napkin ring sculpture and triangle lamp tied for second place...You make it all look sooo simple!❤️
Your Saturday uploads are a highlight of my week. You have a special way of pulling me out of the stresses and messes I deal with everyday! So thanks a ton for your wonderful content and fabulous personality! ♥️
💜💜💜
I love when you have to keep changing, it's real and encourages me to keep going! My favorite was the lady vase, but I liked all.
The bookends were fabulous as was the vase. I adore your ingenious spirit !! ☮
My favourite was the last one, really striking.
Love them all, but I agree, the vase and the napkins piece were my favorites!
I honestly love them all, but my favourite is the book ends such a simple idea that packs a punch. Excellent content as always
1/ I love that you don't shy away from including your 'failures' in your videos, it helps avoid troubles if/when anyone'd try their hand at some of these DIYs (also the finished lamps looked really good)
2/ For some reason the vase makes me think of topless Tammy 🤣
3/ My fave DIY was definitely the bookends and I'm really considering something similar as soon as possible 👀
1/Agreed. I love that about Danie too!💙
My favourite was the last wood sculpture. I would buy that in a minute! All great decor flips. Tip...a shade should always cover all of the socket etc. when looked at from a seated position.
You’re so creative😊😊👍🏽👍🏽I ❤️the bust- the napkin ring, and the book ends👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Pearl, the papier-mâché woman, was my favourite!
As sweet young lady I know just had a double mastectomy yesterday,, I am going to see if I can re-create this stunning vase you made. Thank you Miss Dani
Love the purple lamp, looking forward though, to a different shade 😀. The lady is beyond awesome! Such fun and quirky projects. Makes me want to go thrifting.
I like all of them, but the triangle vase with purple shade is too cute.
Look so forward to Saturday morning to see what you have in store for us. Love that you think outside the box. Thank you for your wonderful and beautiful inspiration.
You are so generous to your loyal community! I was expecting one or two, 🤯
All turned out lovely

I loved the bookends… well, they’re all special.
My favourites are the Bookends and the lamp with texture. They all looked amazing though.
Love, your TH-cam personality ! (since I do not know you personally) Saturday D. I. Y’s are the best entertainment. Thanks
Your imagination is truly astounding!! The books between the book ends just pop, and look fantastic. I love the wood sculpture, but my fave is the bust vase. Have a good one. TFS😊
I love the napkin ring sculpture 👌🏽
Loved the sculpture with the wood triangles.
The bookends and the wood art tower were my favorites! Great flips!
I love the napkin ring decor piece. WOW totally high end.
For a Kids Room you could add lighting to base of the pottery lamp and it could be used as a night light and a regular lamp. My favorite was the bust vase. I love to sculpt and that looks like a sculpted piece.
I love this video 😃 practical, pretty to watch the process and look at, showing us what can go wrong but not spending a ton of time focusing on it, super creative, etc etc
These are honestly all so good!! This channel has been killing it lately,
The bookends are my favorite!!!
Bookends and wooden ornament were my fav, Well done Danie! 😉
So hard to pick my favorite, I love the bookends and wood napkin holder sculpture. Who wouldn’t love the breast friend vase! Love it!
My favorite was the napkin ring tower! ♥️
loved all the flips, but I think the bookends were my favorite!
I honestly love every one. I even thought the "breat friend" looked pretty cool in just decoupage and newspaper. Your creativity and skills are impressive!
I agree - really loved the newspaper look
I kept thinking fabric scraps, wrapping paper, or wallpaper would be cool too.
My favourites were the last 2 for sure xx but if I had to choose 1, it would be the bookends. ❤️❤️❤️
absolutely amazing! I love the purple glass. Faszinating how you keep coming up with all these ideas, when I'm in the thrift shop I get overwhelmed so easily
Always walk in with a direction. I get overwhelmed too if I don't come with a list or idea in mind!
@@DIYDanie okay, good advice, thanks
Maybe apply some gold rub and buff on the purple glass lamp’s socket so it blends. Or a deeper bowl shade that cover the socket. Fun flip.
I love the bookends. Perfect for those books!
Love the bookends, so glad you left them natural. Loved all the diy ideas.
It’s the take on the items, that elevates them to “heigh end”! I liked the bookends, simple but interesting!

LOVE the wood napkin holders, turned artwork!
Wow! Such great thrift flips!
I would have any of those in my home.
I liked the lamps, I think it’s the size of the bowl that doesn’t seem right to me.
The bookends are beautiful! They turned out so good. I know if I saw them in a store, they would be mine!
The breast vase is awesome! It looks like something you could buy at a store.
The napkin ring holders are brilliant! That sculpture is so high end!
Danie, I love your creative, imaginative mind! You look at something and can see the potential for what it could be. That’s a gift.
Spending Saturday mornings with you is the best part of the morning!
Thanks Donna! I agree...the lamp top is not right - just yet - but I'll be on the hunt for something magical in the future! ✨
I liked the books end followed by the sculpture. They look good on the shelf together. I think the purple lamp is great, just need a deeper bowl or move it down a bit to hide the harp. :)

Love them all. The vase made me smile - love your creativity 😊
The last three were the best!! The bust vase, bookends, and wood decor piece! Loved them!
LOVED ❤️ ALL of them but Lady Pearl is my fave too ...gonna try that one ❤️
